Near-Earth object / ID: 2065909
65909 is a near-Earth object of the APO orbit class — Near-Earth asteroid orbits which cross the Earth’s orbit similar to that of 1862 Apollo. Radar and photometric estimates put it between 365m - 817m across. It has been followed since 1998-03-25 across 536 recorded observations. Its next approach to Earth is 2028-Oct-24 09:13, passing at 37.486 LD. JPL classifies it as a potentially hazardous asteroid, a label driven by its size and how close its orbit comes to ours — not by a predicted impact.
